Testimonials

Jennifer Potts (student from Surf Diva)
“I was especially impressed with Lizzie and Crystal’s coaching skills. I took a surf lesson from a company in Florida 3 years ago, and the difference between that lesson and Lizzie and Crystal’s instruction was night and day”.

Emily Rieman McLaughlin (student from Surf Diva)
The main thing I find myself talking about is how great the coaching was…It blows me away that someone stands there getting hammered by the waves for hours, up to her head in the water, getting novice surfers lined up and pushed off into a wave. You couldn't walk away from your lesson without being amazed by and thankful for that kind of help and dedication. I'm sorry, it’s just really hard to imagine some guy standing there and working that hard for you. He'd just want to be off surfing himself!”
 

Claire Osborne (student from Surf Diva)
“Lizzie did an amazing job of coordinating our days. We always knew what to expect and were well prepared for what we would be doing each day. Lizzie also did an excellent job of accommodating everyone in the group in terms of arranging special things that we wanted to do, like shopping trips, a visit to the spa, or going out for a group dinner. Lizzie was very open to suggestions for activities, and very approachable, which ensured that each participant got what they wanted from the Boarding School experience. Lizzie has incredible organizational skills, and kept everyone happy and on time!”
 

Elizabeth Southworth (student from Las Olas)
"Lizzie was one of my surf instructors at Las Olas. At the start of the trip, I was a beginner with no experience outside the white water. In a few days time, I was able to paddle to the outside and catch waves. Lizzie completely surf stoked a land locked city girl! When I discovered that Lizzie was at Surf Diva, I signed up for more (2 weeks)! There I met Crystal too. She was a pleasure to work with as well. Both further coached me to be able to read waves and we worked on my timing. They are patient, yet precise in their coaching. They are both enthusiastic seasoned surfers who give the individual attention needed to provide a super fun and safe time surfing."
